'''Sequence''': 4th set in North America

'''Release date:''' Feburary 28th, 2000 in North America

'''Miscellaneous:'''

* This set was a combination of [[Jungle (TCG)|Jungle]] and [[Base Set (TCG)|Base Set]] (1). [[Wizards of the Coast]] usually performs these sorts of reprintings with their card games, and the Pokémon TCG was of no exception. At the time this proved to be an unpopular decision between fans and players, however [[Legendary Collection (TCG)|Legendary Collection]] would later repair this.

* Since this set was 130 large and Base Set and Jungle combined would yield 166 cards, some cards were taken out.
